A 1100 watt oven can be plugged into a standard household socket. Using the formula for computing wattage which is the voltage at the outlet, (120 volts A.C.) times the Amperage,(unknown, although you could look at the label on the back or bottom of the appliance) yoiu would get the wattage. Volts times amperage equals wattage. This can be looked at also as wattage divided by the voltage to get the amperage or current. If the amperage is below 15 it is okay to plug it in. Some kitchen outlets are rated higher like 20 amps but most outlets are 15 amp. 1100 watts divided by 120 volts gives you about 9 amps, well within the limits of the electrical circuit.

What is the voltage difference between the two holes in a wall socket?

One of the holes is a power wire and the other is a ground. Without both you have no voltage. As soon as the power wire is grounded either through the other side of the circuit or by some careless human you have 110 volts.
